Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X55SB
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X55SB is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 55mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. Its short compact envelope saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X55SB
The ACED80X55SB is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format. A 20 mm rod exits both covers, so thrust is identical on each stroke: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions because both sides work on the rod-side area. The 80 mm bore sits in the heavy end of the range, delivering up to 480.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speed from 30-500 mm/s.
The hard-anodized aluminium body with a hard-chrome plated S45C rod keeps the envelope tight: the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it drops into presses and gantries where a full-length body will not fit. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 1410 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift about 120 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The S in the code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE / DMSE switches can be clamped straight onto the body, and the B gives a male rod thread. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACE-series (ISO 21287) datasheet. Body: hard-anodized aluminium alloy; piston rod: S45C carbon steel with hard-chrome plating. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. A built-in magnet is OPTIONAL — add the -S code to fit CMSE / DMSE position sensors.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2356 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3299 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 481 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

Where the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X55SB Is Used
Pneumatic press head
A 55 mm stroke driving a stamping or marking head on an aluminium extrusion line, where 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa is enough and the short body fits inside the press frame.
Reciprocating push-pull station
A transfer unit that clamps or ejects on both strokes, using the equal 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa in each direction and the rear rod as a position-flag carrier for CMSE switches.
Vertical lift-and-lower jig
Raising about 120 kg fixture plates with a 2:1 margin, guided by the 20 mm through-rod against rotation, with the fixed TPU bumper softening each end of travel.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X55SB the Right Cylinder?
Size between bores: a 63 mm double-rod unit gives 1458.1 N at 0.5 MPa, while the next step up, 100 mm, reaches 3769.9 N. If your load needs about 2350 N, this 80 mm bore is the match. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a second tooling plate. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. Mount with FA/FB flanges or LB feet on the ISO 21287 face, and pair I or Y rod knuckles with the male thread.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED80X55SB FAQ
Yes. Because a rod exits both covers, both strokes use the rod-side area: 2356.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 3298.7 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in push and pull. At the full 1.0 MPa the bore reaches 480.5 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C.
S means the optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches clamp directly to the body slots; models without the S code carry no magnet. B specifies a male rod thread. Mounting brackets - FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC - bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I or Y knuckles suit the rod end. The body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, and a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke energy.
